As it seeks to gain ground in the fast-moving AI space, Google is rolling out Bard Extensions, enabling users to import their data from other Google products.
For instance, users could ask Bard to search their files in Google Drive or provide a summary of the user’s Gmail inbox.
For now, Bard users will only be able to pull information in from Google apps, but Google is working with external companies to connect their applications into Bard in the future, Google senior product director Jack Krawczyk said.
Another new feature in Bard seeks to alleviate a nagging problem for generative AI: inaccurate responses known as “hallucinations”.
Bard users will be able to see which parts of Bard’s answers differ from and agree with Google search results.
